Strength and Conditioning

The Hendricks Training Complex includes a 5,000-square foot weight room.

The model strength and conditioning program in the nation, Husker Power plays a major role in the continuing success of Nebraska Athletics. Nebraska's strength program was the first in the nation, and with 12 staff members is one of the most comprehensive strength and conditioning organizations in the country.

The Hendricks Training Complex features a new 5,000-square foot weightroom that is used by the men's basketball team on a daily basis. Along with the athletic training room and locker room, it is just steps away from the practice court.
